PREPARATION
For safety, turn off the audio system and battery switch prior to beginning installation. If your vessel does not have a battery switch, simply disconnect the negative lead from the battery terminal. Use extreme caution before cutting and drilling holes to avoid damaging fuel lines, hydraulic lines, or existing electrical components. If additional wiring is required, we recommend using at least 18 gauge wiring and running all wires prior to installing the speaker. Longer runs may require 16 gauge wire to prevent negative impacts on sound quality. Leave some slack in the wire to allow for easier installation and to prevent tension on the wire. · Avoid running wires near sharp edged surfaces. Never run wires exposed on the deck, protecting the wires behind cover offers the best protection from marine elements. If wires must be routed through metal or fiberglass walls, use rubber grommets to protect the wire. · All wiring should be done by a qualified marine technician. NOTE: Consider how you would Like to use the integrated RGB LED before you begin installation. It can either be hard-wired to one of 7 different colors OR you may purchase an LED controller to allow any combination of colors and patterns.

&

WARNING

&

These speakers are capable of easily producing sound pressure levels (SPU in excess of 100 dB, even in an open-air environment like a boat. Sound pressures at or above these levels can easily cause permanent hearing damage or loss. Be sure to use safe listening practices and protect your ears.

Notes  
Warning  
If you do not have experience with automotive or marine electrical and
mechanical systems please contact a professional installer.  
Paying a qualified installer is almost always cheaper than paying a dealership
to repair your boat.

Please check the suitability of the installation location before you begin. Do
not cut any of the boat’s structure. Pay close attention to what is behind any
bulkheads, panels and carpet. Often the boat manufacturer will hide wires and
cables in the exact location you may wish to install in.

Location of the Amplifier The amplifier must be securely mounted to a solid
surface. Please select a dry location such as in the storage compartment. Do
not mount the amplifier to any area that may have excessive vibration (like
the subwoofer box), under any cup holder drain lines, or under ballast
drain/vent fittings that may leak water. Position the amplifier in an area
that receives sufficient airflow and mount it vertically or completely flat
for optimal heat dissipation.

Supplying Enough Power The R1 Series amplifiers are capable of significant
output. In order to achieve this it is critical that the amplifiers 12 Volt
wiring is adequate to provide the necessary power to the amplifier. We
recommend using 4AWG wire for all power and ground connections. Be sure to
fuse the power wire appropriately for the amount of current being drawn.

The Ground The ground wire should be connected directly to the battery of your
boat. Remember, the ground must carry the same high current as the positive
wire.

RCA Cables The R1 Series amplifiers feature differential RCA inputs for
maximum noise rejection. However, it is still a good idea to follow best
practices to minimize the amount of interference in the signal chain. To
reduce the risk of noise, run all signal cables away from any power supplying
wires.

Protection Indicator This amplifier is equipped with an advanced protection
system. If for any reason this unit goes into protection mode it will flash a
solid single red LED light found on the control end of the amplifier. In most
cases, the amp will automatically recover once the issue causing the protect
mode is corrected.

Installing Multiple Amplifiers Roswell offers a stacking spacer for use with
R1 Amps (C920-1830). These allow you to stack amplifiers on top of each other
securely. Roswell recommends stacking a maximum of four amplifiers when done
on a flat surface or two amplifiers when mounted on a vertical surface. It may
be necessary to provide more airflow for more amplifiers as more amps will
generate more heat.

Sensitivity Due to the wide range of head unit output configurations all RMA
amplifiers have an adjustable input sensitivity. The level is not a volume
control. It is used to properly set the ouput of the amplifier based on the
output voltage of the source unit, and to ensure the speakers are receiving
clean power at an appropriate level. With the sensitivity turned up, the
amplifier will reach maximum output at a lower volume setting on the source
unit.  
There is no correct sensitivity setting suitable for all applications as head
unit preamp outputs vary. If you are unsure on adjusting this settings,
consult an audio installation professional.  
Crossover Controls A crossover is a circuit that filters unwanted frequencies.
A tweeter can easily be blown by bass frequencies if they are not filtered
out. A subwoofer will not sound natural if it is playing mid range
frequencies. Careful adjustment is needed to ensure that all speakers are
playing the right frequencies and that they are left with no gaps in the
frequency response.  
The R1 Series amplifiers feature calibrated potentiometers in the crossover
section which allows for very precise adjustment of the filter frequency. The
900.6 and 650.4 amplifiers feature a single crossover. Simply select whether
you would like the crossover to be a low-pass or high-pass, and adjust
accordingly. The 1000.1 also features a Subsonic (infrasonic) filter, which is
explained in detail below.  
Full – Allows the full range of frequencies to pass through.  
HPF (High-Pass Filter) – A high-pass filter allows high frequency signals to
pass through while reducing all signals lower than the cutoff frequency
setting on its dial.

(illustrates crossover set at 90Hz)

Amplitude (dB)

60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 Frequency (Hz)  
LPF (Low-Pass Filter) – A low-pass filter allows low frequency signals to pass
through while reducing all signals higher than the cutoff frequency setting on
its dial.  
LPF Frequency Response Curve  
(illustrates crossover set at 80Hz)

Amplitude (dB)

10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Frequency (Hz)  
Subsonic (1000.1 & 550.2 only) – A Subsonic, or infrasonic, filter is
essentially a high-pass filter dedicated to removing the lowest frequencies.
This allows you to remove unwanted frequencies in order to protect your
subwoofer from excess power, or to prevent it from unloading when it is in a
ported enclosure or free-aired application. In most cases this filter should
be set at around 30 Hz (12:00 position on the dial).  
Phase Control (1000.1 & 550.2 only) – The Phase control allows you to fine-
tune the output of the amplifier in order to ensure that the sound from the
subwoofer is in-phase with the sound with the rest of the audio system
maximize the bass output. Depending on your subwoofer mounting location this
may not need to be adjusted. If you are unsure on how to properly adjust this
setting, leave it alone.  
Bass Boost All of the RMA amplifiers have an adjustable bass boost from 0-18
dB @ 45 Hz. Adjust the Bass Boost carefully – the response on the power output
is tremendous!  
Remote Gain Control The 1000.1 Amplifier includes a remote gain control module
that can be plugged into the amplifier to allow easy reduction of the gain
setting without accessing the amplifier.

RCA Inputs All R1 amplifiers feature switchable differential RCA inputs to
maximize noise rejection.  
Input Select Switch The 900.6 and 650.4 amplifiers feature an input selection
switch that will allow you to set which RCA inputs feed signal to the
amplifier. You can choose a dedicated RCA input for each channel, or to have
one pair of RCAs to supply the signal to all channels. The 900.6 also allows
for 4 channel input to control all 6 outputs. This allows you to group
channels together to easily interface with head units that feature zone
control, or to use with our Dual Zone Volume Control. NOTE: Set this switch
before tuning your amplifier.  
RCA Line Out The 1000.1, 550.2, and 650.4 amplifiers have line out connections
that allow you to connect multiple amplifiers together. The 550.2 and 650.4
line outs supply a full range stereo signal. The 1000.1 line out supplies a
mono signal as it is designed to provide signal to additional subwoofer
amplifiers.  
Speaker Outputs All R1 amplifiers are equipped with a block style terminal for
speaker connection. Make these connections carefully and neatly. Strip your
wire back 5/8″ (16mm) and twist the exposed leads. Using a 2mm Allen wrench,
loosen the terminal set screws far enough to allow the wire to fit. Insert
them into the appropriate spot on the block terminal. Make sure that there are
no loose or frayed strands of wire sticking out. If a wire comes in contact
with another wire, the amplifier will go into protection mode. After
tightening the terminal set screws, verify your wires are secured in place by
gently pulling on them.  
Impedance

The 900.6 and 650.4 Amplifiers are 2 stable on each channel, meaning that up
to two 4 speakers can be wired in parallel per channel. When bridging channels
the speaker must have a nominal impedance of at least 4. Attempting to run
speakers below 4 when bridging channels could result in damage to the
amplifier and will void the warranty.

The 1000.1 Amplifier is 1 stable, meaning that up to four 4 subwoofers can be
connected to the amplifier simultaneously. If you are unsure about impedance
matching or series vs. parallel wiring, consult an audio installation
professional.

B

Run a 4 AWG wire from the battery to the amplifier. Plan this part of the
installation carefully. This cable will carry a very high current . If it
should short to any metal and is not properly fused it could catch fire.

+-

C

To protect the power wires, connect an in-line fuse holder to the power cable
as close to the battery as possible. If one amplifier is being used, refer to
the table below for recommended fuse rating. If two or more amplifiers are
being used, verify the fuse and wire are capable of handling the total current
load of all amplifiers connected. The amplifiers themselves are internally
fused and do not require additional protection.

Cooling & Airflow Warning

AMPLIFIER MAY BECOME VERY HOT DURING NORMAL OPERATION  
Your new Roswell Marine Audio amplifer possesses exceptional efficiency and
thermal management. However, it is possible that, if mounted in a confined
space and/or high temperature environment, it may become extremely hot during
periods of extended use. Special attention must be given during the
installation process to optimize cooling efficiency. An unobstructed airflow
around the amplifier’s heat sink is required to enable proper cooling. For
optimal performance Roswell recommends mounting the amplifier as follows:

Vertical Mount

Flat Mount

Mounting the amplifier in a position that does not enable proper cooling will
affect the performance of the unit and is strongly discouraged.

In addition to proper mounting ensure that no items are in direct contact with
the amplifier Life vests, wet suits, towels, coolers, and other like items
must be kept away from amplifier.

Roswell Marine is not liable for damage resulting from improper mounting
and/or negligent use of this product. Notes
